- Isiqephu sokuqala sephepha senziwa nguTyai Lun ngo-105 AD.
- Kwiminyaka engama-20 emva kwe-1990, izinga lokubuyisela iphepha liphantse liphindwe kabini e-US Ngo-2011, iipesenti ezingama-66.8 zamaphepha ase-United States athatyathwa.
- Ngo-2010, iipesenti ezingama-87 zabantu babenokufikelela kwi-curbside kunye / okanye ukuhlaziywa kwamaphepha okubuyisela.
- E-US, iimveliso ezininzi zephepha ziphinda zenziwe kwakhona njengoko zihanjiswe kwiifom zomhlaba I-paper paper ye-US ibeke umgomo we-60% wezinga lokubuyisela iphepha kwi-scrap iphepha ngo-2012. Iphumelele le njongo iminyaka emithathu, ikulinganisa inani lokubuyisela i-66.8 ngo-2011. kwi-American Forest & Paper Association, inani eliphakathi kwephepha elifunyenwe ngumntu ohlala e-US lalingama-334 iipounds ngonyaka.
- Ngaphezulu kweyesithathu kwiphepha elitsha liveliswa ngefiber. Ezinye iimithombo zetayibrari ziquka imithi yonke kunye nezityalo (enye yesithathu), kunye nokuhlala kwii-sawmills (enye yesithathu). Ngokwesisindo, iphepha libandakanya ngaphezu kweyesithathu yazo zonke i-recyclable eziqokelelwe e-US, malunga nezigidi ezingama-45 ngonyaka ka-2010.
- I-fiber efunyenweyo isetyenziswe ngamaphesenti angu-87 angaphezulu kwe-520 iphepha kunye nephephabhodi. izilwanyana e-US, ukubonelela ngaphezu kweyesithathu kwefayibha esetyenzisiweyo kwiirhasi.
- IPhepha ayikwazi ukuphinda iphinde iphinde isetyenziswe ngonaphakade. Ngayo yonke i-recycling, iifiber ziba mfutshane. Emva kokucubungulwa amaxesha amahlanu ukuya kusixhenxe, iifiber ziba mfutshane kakhulu ukuveliswa kwephepha elitsha, ezifuna ukongezwa kweefayili ezintsha.
- Iibini zetathu zezinto zokupakisha ezifunyenweyo ukubuyiswa kwakhona kwiphepha, ngaphezu kweglasi, insimbi kunye neeplastiki. Ngokweenkcukacha zengxowankulu yenkcitho yamanzi evela kwi-EPA, kuphela i-27.1 pesenti yeglasi, i-19.9 pesenti ye-aluminium kunye ne-8.2 yeeplastiki ezidliwe zifunyenwe ngokutsha kwakhona ngo-2010.
- Kwimihla ngemihla, ama-papermaker ase-US aphinda ahlaziye iphepha elaneleyo ukuzalisa uhambo olude lweekhilomitha ezili-14.
- Iphepha lokuphinda liphinde lisebenzise i-carbon sequestration.
- Iintlawulo zokuphinda zibuyiswe enye itoni yephepha ziquka:
- Ukugcina amandla okwaneleyo ukunika amandla umlinganiselo wasekhaya waseMelika ezintandathu.
- Ukuphepha ukusetyenziswa kwamawaka angama-7 000 wamanzi.
- Ukuphepha ukusetyenziswa kwee-3.3 zeeyubhidi zeendawo zokukhusela umhlaba.
- Ukuphepha ukukhutshwa kwegesi ye-greenhouse enye yeetrikri yeetoni ye-carbon (MTCE).
